Last night, I received a call to participate in a spontaneous meeting. I was informed that I would be very interested in the agenda. Putting away my laptop, I got ready and left the house to see what was going on. It took awhile to get there...almost 30 minutes. Making a stop at the village gas station was a must...Or I won't be able to get home.
Upon arriving, and walking up to the table situated in the front yard, I recognized two former co-workers. It's been a long time since I've seen these two guys. We greeted each other, then I greeted the host, and sat down. After the catching up and how to do's, they finally broached the reason why I was asked to attend their special meeting.
This is not the first time, that I have been invited to join in a new business venture. I don't think it will be the last either. However, after listening to the three speak and the goals they want to accomplish, and hearing the possible mission statement. I realized that these three are serious about this new adventure. It wasn't just talk. Also the idea of bringing me in early and not later showed their sincerity on having me on board as part of the team.
Ideas of potential offices and facilities were laid out on the table. One was agreed upon for now. The build on this new company will be slow going since all of us worked full-time positions. Another meeting was planned for, within a month.
I'm flattered and humbled to be part of a new company on Guahan.
